HAMMOND CHUBB, Assistant-Secretary. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE THE OPERA SEASON, 1801, WILL COIIMENCE ON SATURDAY, APRIL 9. Ip offering the Prospectus of the ensuing Season to the fmnsideration of the patrons of Her Majesty's Theatre, Mr. 31 / I PLESON, encouraged by former successes, anticipate s with confidence that the arrangements ho has been enabled to conclude will be accepted as evidence of an earnest wish 'on his part to merit a continuance of the liberal support and kind approval with which his efforts have hitherto been rewarded. On entering upon the arduous undertaking of restoring ner Majesty's Theatre to its former rank as the first ope ratic establishment in Europe, Mr. Mapleson's ex'rtions 'were naturally directed to extending and completing its Purely musical resources, and raising their character and efficiency to the highest requirements of modern taste and knowledge. The essential features of a lyrical theatre having been thus secured, a more than ordinary share of attention can be bestowed on the subordinate though (in the present day) important and multifarious element of mise en scene. In announcing that the exclusive services of Mr. Telbin have been retained, it may be assumed that, under the direction of that highly experienced artist, the scenery at Her Majesty's Theatre will in future equal all that has been achieved in that department. The orchestra, now FO highly appreciated, has been numerically reinforced, and its direction again confided to Signor Arditti, whose recognised talent and untiring zeal have raised the performanoes at Her Majesty's Theatre to their present high standard. The chorus has been strengthened by important addi tions, and is now almost entirely composed of singers from the Teatro Itegio (Turin) and the LiC6O ("twin). Chorus master, Signor Chiaromonte. A. new organ is being erected by the eminent firm of Gray and Davidson. Several important works of great continental repute, the titles of which are included in the prospectus, will be produced in the most careful, complete, and efficient man ner. In addition to the names of the established favourites of last season will be found those of other artists of European celebrity, who will have the honour of appearing, tor the first time in this country, before the patrons of Her Ma. jesty's Theatre, ENGAGEMENTS.

Thi. Company is estalAshed for the purpose of extendinv to British Columbia and Vancouver Island princi••les of business that have long since been adopted in other colonies with very beneficial results both to the English capitalist and the local property holder. The Company will raise moneys on debentures on its own credit, on terms prevalent in this market, and will a :ply the moneys so obtained to mortgage of real estate or other secu rities of a substantial and productive clviracter in the two colonies, at the much higher rates procurable there. When it is mentioned that in British Columbia and Vancouver Island fr. m 12 to 16 per cent. per annum is regarded as a favourable rate of interest at which to b rrow money on un exceptionable securities, it wil at once be seen how consider able is the margin of profit that will arise to the Company under thi- head. Toe acquirement of property by purchase, to a limited ex tent, whether from the Government direct or from private owners, will also, in cases pre , enting the prospect of advan tageous and early resale, have attention from the Company— it is considered that the Government of the two colonies may be induced, in consideration of the encouragement which the Company will have the opportunity of offering to immigra tion, to accord grants of land to the Company under regulatcd cond , tions of settlement. This Company is formed for the purpose of carrying out concessions for making and working Tramways in the King dom of Holland and adjacent states. A concession for a d,uble Tramway from the Hague to Scheveningue (the Brighton of Holland) has already been obtained on-favour able terms, and a contract has been co eluded with respon sible English contractors, by which they undertake to pur chase the land, to make the lines, and provide all the rolling stock, horses, &c„ for the sum of £40,000. The remaining 10,000 will be required for a working c pita'. The works are in active prrgress, and will be completed and brought into operation in thecourse of the month of May next. _ _ The Company will also act as Agents in all matters of In vestment and Finance as between the home capitalist and the colonial property holder. The Company's business in the colonies will be conducted by specially se:ectecl managers. The s.curit;es selected will be subjected to the strictest examination both as to title and value. The line will commence in the principal square in the town of the Hague, and follow the ordinary route to Scheveningue returning by another route, via the Canal and Zoological Garden., to the same station, being a total length of about seven English miles. Scheveningue, the only marine suburb in Holland, is re sorted oby large numbers of visitors, chiefly from Amster dam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, and other towns. From minute information furnished by the town authori ties, the number of vehicles employed in this t•affic has been ascertained to make 110 0,0 journeys a year, each conveying on ,‘n average six persons, and the total number of visitors now entering Scheveningue in carriages and on foot amounts to about 4, 00,0 0 a year; of these it may fairly be estimated that one-fourth will travel by the Tramway. In addition thereto, about 20,000 tons of fish, merchandise, and provisions are carried annually between the Hague and Scheveningue, o which it is assumed that one-halt at least will be carried by the Tramway. From existin, sources of traffic an annual income of at least £20,000 may safely be calculated upon. From carefully prepared estimates of the cost of horse keep, waves, repairs, and every contingency, the general re sult is that a net dividend of not less than 15 per cent. on the proposed capital may fairl be relied upon. A large number of shares has already b en subscribed for in Holland, which furnishes a proof of the high estimation in which this undertaking is held by the Dutch people. Ap plications for the remaining shares may be made to the Brokers, or to the Secretary, at the Offices, it, Cannon-street, but no application will be considered unless accompanied oy a deposit of £1 per share ; should no allotment be made to the a• plicant, this sum will be returned in full. March, 18111. The debenture holder, under this course of business, will not only have the security of the subscribed capital, but also the entire assets of the Company. The prospects of the shareholders are best exemplified by the large returns on capital obtained by the shareholders of similar institutions. The Company has taken powers which will enable it to effect an union with any other Company having kindred ob jects in anyofthe t3rl , lsh North American colonies. _ _ The Boa;c1 of the Company consists of gentlemen who have either applied the same principles of business to other colo nies, cr who, from their connection with the North American possessions, will be regarded as authorities upon the subject of Colonial securities. As fields for investment British Columbia and Vancouver Island may be said to be unsurpassed in advantages. The rise and progress of these colonies have been most rapid ; the imports into the port of Victoria (Vancouver Island) alone during the six montns ending June, 1863, were 1,863,513 dols., being an excess over those of the first half of the pre vious year of upwaras of 160, 00 dols. The value of property in Vancouver Island has more than doubled during the last three years. The azricuhural capacity of British Columbia is now also fast attracting attention. The Memorandum and Articles of Association can be in spected at the Offices of the Solicitors. Messrs. Baxter, Rose, Norton, and Co., 6, Victoria-street, Westminster, or at the Temporary Offices of the Company. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

Beverley, Esq., Leeds. - - This Company has been formed for the construction of a Railway from Douglas to Peel (passing through St. John's), in the Isle of Man. The improved trade of these important towns, as well as the prosperous condition and increasing population of the island, and the rapid augmentation of the number of visitors during late years, call for the immediate introduction of railways. The Agricultural capabilities of the Island are great; and its Mineral products are acknowledged to be rich in yield and avave average value ; whilst around the Coast there are extensive Fisheries, and an unlimited supply of Sea• weed for Manure. The expense and trouble, however, of land-carriage, have hitherto rendered these advantages com paratively unavailable. Slate Quarries are in active operation ; and the quality of the Slate is equal in closeness of grain and durability to any produced from the great Welsh quarries. The Granite near St. John's compares favourably with that now used in the Liverpool Dock Works, and would at once, by means of railway facilities, become available for export. One of the proposed Stations on the line will be at St. John's, where the Courts of Tynwald meet, and which is also the centre of the Foxdale mining district. The produce of these mines is now brought by land-carriage (there being no water communication) to Douglas, a distance of nearly ten miles, whilst Coals and other important materials, as well as all necessaries required by the inland population, are conveyed into the interior by the same mode. Besides these items of traffic, the Fairs, which are frequently held during the year in this district, must add considerably to the annual revenue of the Company. The principal towns are Douglas, Peel, Castletown, Ramsey, and Laxey Douglas being the chief port, and the great commercial depot, as well as the principal place of arrival and departure of the steam packets plying to and from the Island. At the port of Peel the fisheries are prin cipally conducted, employing upwards of 1,000 vessels; the place of destination for the produce is Douglas ; the route is tedious, and the transit by the existing means ex pensive.• The access to the Island is easy, and the means of com • munication with Liverpool, Fleetwood, Whitehaven, Silloth, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, and other ports, both by sailing and steam vessels, are frequent and convenient. Hence, Tourists visit the Island in large numbers, above 100,000 passengers having been landed at its Ports during the past year. Such Visitors, attracted by the entiquarian relics, scenery, and other objects of interest, would, as a matter of coarse, go by the proposed Railway from Douglas to the interior, and across the Island to Peel. The highest medical authorities bear testimony to the salubrity of the climate and purity of the water. The Picturesque is united with the more solid advantage of cheap living, provisions being abundant and comparatively inex- pensive, whilst the rates of duties on foreign produce are so small as to render the Island most advantageous as a per manent place of residence. Her Majesty's Government and the Local Authorities are now expending upwards of £60,000, for the improvement of the Ports of Douglas and Peel The Electric Telegraph to England has been recently established. The Lines of Rail will be single, with requisite sidings. The length of Line will be about twelve miles, and the gradients easy throughout. The landowners and popula tion along it are most favourable to the project. From Statistics recently collected on the spot, with much care, by competent persons, and well supported by Official Returns, it is confidently expected that the Traffic wi:l re turn a good Dividend upon the Invested Capital. The fol lowing is an Estimate of the Traffic : . Passengers, inclusive of Tourists - - £7,500 per annum. Goods, Minerals, Fish, &c 6,500 Parcels and Mails £13,150 Working Expenses at even 50 per Cent. 6,500 Leaving for Dividend Plans, Sections, &c., of the Line are completed, and all necessary forms are being complied with, in accordance with the St. nding Orders of the Court of Tynwald to obtain an Act of the Local Parliament. Neither Imperial or Local Taxes are levied in the Island, and those heavy charges which tend so much to reduce the value of Railway property in England and other countries, no less than to diminish the Shareholders' Dividends, can not, in any degree whatever, prevail with respect to this Lino. An eminent Contractor's firm have agreed to purchase the land. make the Railway, provide and fit up all Stations, furnish Rolling Stock for working the Line, and Telegraphs, upon satisfactory terms. Interest at 5 per cent. per Annum will be allowed, until the opening of the Line, on the amount paid upon shares. An advantageous arrangement can be made with respon sible parties to Lease the Line for 7. 14, or 21 years. Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained from the Secretary, Solicitors, or Brokers of the Company. ftZ EVEN PER CENT. BOLIVIAN GOVERN 3IENT LOAN, for £1,0,0,000 sterling. To be issued in bonds of £lOO, £ . 200, and £5OO each, at 88 per cent. The bonds will bear interest at 7 per cent. per annum, payable half-yearly at the London and County Bank. The loan will be redeemed in 2.5 years by an accumulating sinking fund, commencing at 2 per cent, on 15th March, 1866. The bonds will be drawn by lot yearly, and paid off at par. Issued through the agency of the London and County Bank. By virtue of a decree of the Legislative Assembly of the Repblic of Bolivia (Upper Peru), passed at Oruro on the 3d June, 1863, auttinrising the contraction of a loan, his Ex cellency Don Joses Maria de Ache, the Constitutional Pre sident, has appointed Don Avelino Aaramayo as Fiscal Agent for this purpose, and has empowered him to borrow the sum of One Million sterling on the credit of the said Republic. The total amount authorised to be raised by the aforesaid decree is £1,500,000 sterling, of which £1,000,000 only will be raised at present. The remainder will be offered in the course of next year to the then holders of the bonds of the present issue. The price of issue is £BB per £lOO bond, bearing an annual interest of 7 per cent. commencing from the 15th day of March inst., and payable at the London and County Bunk, in London, on the 15th day of March and the 15th day of September in each year until final redemption. The loan will be payable at the London and County Bank by instalments, at the following dates : £5 per cent. on application. £lO „ on allotment. £lO „ 15th April. £l5 „ 16th May. £lO „ 15th June. £l5 „ 15th July. £l5 „ 15th August. £8 ~ 15th September, less the dividend of 31 per cent. Discount at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum will be allowed on prepayments in full, but in default of due payment of the respective instalments, all previous pay ments will be liable to forfeiture. The bonds will be redeemed at par by a sinking fund, commencing from 15th March, 1866. They will be drawn annually at the London and County Bank by lot in the usual manner; the numbers of the bonds so drawn will be notified by public advertisement, and the bonds themselves paid off at the par of £100,:on presentation fifteen days after the drawing. The objects of the loan are strictly industrial. The pro ceeds will be applied to the formation of a credit establish ment at Potosi to assist exclusively the mining interests of the State, to the construction of bridges, roads, and other public works, with a view to develop the vast mineral wealth, the guano trade, and the commercial resources of the country generally. For the due payment of the interest on this loan, and the redemption of the principal, the Government of the Re public, over and above all its other resonrces,have specially hypothecated the proceeds of the guano deposits, as well as the revenues accruing from the customs of the port of Cobija and the towns of Oruro and La Paz, These special revenues, which amount to about £150,000 per annum, are not, nor have ever been, encumbered with any lien, and the present loan will constitute, therefore, the only charge thereon. The Republic has no external debt. The internal debt does not exceed half a million sterling, and this the Govern ment intend to extinguish next year by the remaining issue of this loan. The Government of Bolivia has covenanted to remit an nually to the London and County Bank the sum equal to 9 per cent. on the nominal amount of the bonds now to be issued, as provision for the interest and sinking fund. A sufficient amount to provide for the interest payable during the first two years will be left in the hands of the London and County Bank. The sinking fund will be yearly augmented by the addi tion of the amounts saved in interest on the bonds progres sively 3 aid off, and the redemption of the entire debt will be effected by the year 1889. A. payment of 5 per cent. must be ma& on the amount applied tor, to the London and County Bank, 21, Lombard street. After allotment, scrip certificates will be issued to " bearer ;" these certificates will be exchanged for bonds to " bearer " of £lOO, £2OO, and £ iOO each, after payment of the final instalment. Caupons will be attached to the bonds, payable inMar3h and September, at the London and County Bank. The documents relating to the authorisation of this loan, with notarial translations thereof, may be inspected at the London and County Bank. Applications for the loan will be received by the London and County Bank, 21, Lombard-street ; or by Messrs. Seymourand Co., Brokers, 38, Th.rogrnorton-street, of whom prospectuses may bo obtained. The subscription list will be closed on the 23d inst. at Four o'clock, London, March, 1864. SEVEN PEE CENT. BOLIVIAN GOVERNMENT LOAN. PORTA OP APPLICATION.

Of all securities or property that can come under the deno mination of " first-class," both for stability as well as in creasing in value year by year, none can at all compare with Freehold or long Leasehold city of London Property, espe cially that portion situated within a radius of 1,000 yards of the Bank of England ; this fact is so well known that the greatest competition is excited when any property of this de scription is offered in the market, and larle as the rise in value of such prorerty has been during the last few years, it is admitted by all conversant with the subject that a still greater increase must continue to take place, from the im possibility of supplyin,x the suitable ac( ommodation re quired by joint-stock companies and commercial and profes sionalfirms. The C.ty Offices Company, Limited, have agreed for the purchase of the undermentioned sites of land, with the build ings thereon ; which, for eligibility of situation and size of each block, are such as can rarely be acquired—as the follow ing enumerate, n will amply p.ove ; they are in five blo ka, viz. : —A, B; C, D, and E. Block A consists of the Freehold Premises, 25, 25A, 26, 27, in Clement's-lane, Lombard-street, with No. 9, 10, and 11, In Nag's Head-court, and 3,4, and 6, Church-court, the whole forming a magnificent block of premises, with lights, and entrances on three sides, and extending back to Gracechurch street ; it has 6S feet tcontac,re and 150 depth, and c ontains 9,900 square superficial feet, and is the largest block so near Lombard-street that has been in th... market for some years. ;Block B consists of the well-known Lea zehold block of New Offices, situited 29, Leadenhal -street, near.y op posite the Peninsular and Orin; a. Company's Office, and extending back ,cc Lime-street-,quare ; it has been erected witlyn the ast three y..ars, from the designs of John Which cord, E , q., a , :d contains 120 firs -class Offi.es, with Four Shoos, the who e let to first-class Merchants and others; it ha fire-proof torrid rs and stone st ,Ireases, Fni possesses the most modern Licprovements, including Telegraph Sta tion, Buffet, &e., in the build,ng. The lease is for 9i ye rs, eta ground-rent of £7OO per annum; it has a frontage of au Let, and 170 feet in depth, and contains 12,0)0 squ ire superficial feet. Bock C consists of the h , ndsome ed . ll:es erected within the ast seven years, ir,m d sUlls by John B rnett, Esq., archit ct, for 31, ssrs Jon sari sod :sons, si vet and, Its, and s'tuated 17 ant is, Cori , hi I, dlreety opposi e the Bank t f Eng and, and alike fore egan' eof building as well as itua ton erh ins the most desirab'e In the laity. With a very tr,fling outlay then ,in accord , i:ce wit, the plans and designs origin illy ma , e, will be converted in about thr. e w, el :s in o Offices, and wo-third, of the building has a ready been let, the ground floor and mez Inc floor b in, rented by the Credit Al obilier and Cr6dit Ponder Companies. These Pre mises arc Leasehold for 6 1 years, at a ground-rent of £6OO leer annum. Bloc 1.) consists of the new and substantial block of Offices, erected w ithin the last three yeas s, and are built in the most übstant Li manner. It contains fifty-five offices, be sides vaults, the whole, exci-pting, four, being let, and offers being made for these. It is Vreeho d, has x frontage of 62 feet ant depth of B)feet, and contains 4,160 supernclal square feet, and is situ - ited a. 6', Great Tower-street, near 3lark ;ane. Block E is the largest block in the City ; it is situated in Bishopsgate-street, opposite St. Hekn's-place, with a thorou Mare to be got through to Old Broad-street, and in the centre of the block adjoins Gresham House ; it contains 25,i 00 square feet. It may be convenient to give an idea of the size of this fine site of land, to say that it is more than four times the size of the Auction Mart, lately sold, and when covered will be among the largest and most conveniently ar range.l Offices in the City. This plot is Leasehold for 99 years, at a ground rent of £l,ooo per annum. The price at which the City Offices Company (Limited) has agreed for the purchase of the whole of tit., before enume rated five blocks is £305,000, including all buildings thereon; this price gives, after addi ng thereto the cos t of purchasing the freehold f the whol e o f the leasehold por tio n s, and de ducting the value of the new buildings thereon , a n average price of only £9 per squa re f oot, w hich, compared with the prices paid for the three last properties within six weeks, gives the following results, viz.:— The Auction Mart 5,800 square foot, cost £1.15,25 , which (rives an average of £ 2O per foot (Freehold), containing an area of about The Leasehold Premises, No. 80, Lombard-street, occupied by the Colonial Insurance Company, containing only 1,080 feet, sold to a well-known Banker for £30,000, subject to a ;ground-rent of £5OO per annum, for 61 years, which, allow ing as in former calculations for purchase of freehold, and deducting the value of new buildings thereon, gives £37 per square foot. The Leasehold Premises in Finch-lane, lately occupied by the London and Middlesex Bank, containing only 6io feet, realised .£lO,OlO, and thi s subject to a ground-rent of £5 '0 per annum, which, allow.ng tor purchase of freehold,". and deducting value of new building, gives about £3O per square foot. It will be seen, therefore, that if large p costing £2O, £3 profits can be rea lised, as they Undoubtedly can be , on land and £37 per foot respectively , the prospects probable profits of those acquired b y tnis Company, costing on l y per foot, will be evident at fi rst sight ; if they were re - s old and at even the lowest of these three quotations, it would leave the City Offices Company (Limited) a very large profit on the cost. _ _ The Company's plan of operations will consist in adapting such of these premises as may be suitable, and erecting new buildings on the remainder, th e whole to be let off as Offices suitable for Banks, large Companies. or Commercial and l'rofessional Firms ; and from calculations made, based upon moderate rentals, a return of from 15 to 20 per cent. on the outlay may be fairy relied on. The Company will also from time to time acquire other properties. as the opportunities present themselves, fir the purpose of re-sale or otherwise. By the issue of Debentuves or otherwise, the paid-up Share Capital will be kept at the lowest possible point. It is believed that as an essentially Home Investment, one so secure, and at the same time so remunerative, is rarely brought to the notice of the public, being wholly free from the speculative character incidental to many joint-stock en terprises ; the model on which the business operations will be conducted will be that of Gresham House Chambers, in Old Broad-street. City Bank Chambers, Threadneedle-street. and County Chambers, Lombard -street, the success of which is well known, the only difference being, that whilst those properties are in the hands of a few capitalists, the proper ties acquired by this Company will be distributed over a large body of Shareholders, which will thus put investors of mode rate means in the same position t o reap the advantages of ' which the magnitude o f the made it impossibl e t o any b u t In the a lot nent of Shares, a proporti on w i ll b e reserved large returns Nn r v e tes t a u lr r teh n qy s u l o mr n eed C n h i t t oa y s phriotpheerrtty. undertake. for applicant , ' who are Shareholders in the Mercantile Credit Association (Limited), and the Credit Fonder (Limited) ; the amongS the general public.

JOHN ORWELL PHILLIPS, Secretary. ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS. The Directors of Bonelli's Electric Telegraph Company (Limited), having established a line of telegraphic communi cation between Manchester and Liverpool, the working of which has proved, even beyond expectation, both practically and commercially, the unrivaled excellenc of BaneWs system, propose to extend their operations throughout the United Kingdom. With this view it has been determined to issue new shares, raising the capital of the Company from its present amount of £25,000 to £250,000, in order to enable the Company to carry out the highly advantageous arrangement already settled with the patentees for the acquisition of the entire patent right for the United Kingdom, as well as to meet all the remaining expenditure necessary to establish the operations of the Comp my on the proposed enlarged footing. it is confidently expected that by thus extending to all the important districts of England the signal advantages, prac tical and economical, possessed over every other system of telegraphy in use by the Typo-Electric Telegraphy, and through the reduction of the tariff to a uniform rate of 6d. per ordinary message of twenty words, placing the boon of tele graphic intercommunication within reach of the masses, new and boundless sources of business, and consequently of profit to the thareholders, will be created, while to all who already use the Electric Telegraph will be secured for the first time that rapidity, correctness, and punctuality, which, from the nature of the agent employed, the public had a right to ex pect, but which, until the Chevalier .lionelli's invention, has never been practically attained. 1. Each message is printed by the very act of transmission, in clear Roman characters, and as so transmitted is delivered without further process, to the receiver, thus absolutely ex cluding all possibility of error from any source existing be tween the sender and the receiver. 2. The extreme rapidity with which messages can be trans mitted allows these instruments to keep pace with the largest amount of insiness within the experience of existing estab lishments, and places them beyond all likelihood of being overtaxed, even by the increased pressure of work that must inevitably ensue from a uniform sixpenny rate for the ordi nary message. This rapidity and certainty of working ap plied to journalism must produce results even more marked, and it has been proved by practice that a speech which by the ordinary instruments occupied six and a half hours in trans mission, could with an equivalent staff be printed off by the Bonelli Telegraph, in the space of one hour and a half. No less emphatically does the instrument recommend itself to members of the Stock Exchange, to whom it ensures that absolute accuracy, united with exemption from delayin com municating with their correspondents, which cannot be inva riably counted on under existing systems. 3. The automatic nature and simple working of the Bonelli instrument renders it independent of specially trained, and therefore highly paid manipulators. 4. The necessity to which all other telegraphic establish ments are exposed of increasing the staff of operators in pro portion with the augmentation of business, does not exist whereßonelli's instruments are employed; and, consequently, all increase of business must prove almost absolutely clear profit. A system to which the above capabilities can be attributed without an approach to exaggeration, and which, therefore, profitably to its promoters, places Telegraphy in direct rela tion with the requirements, actual and prospective, of mo dern society, cannot when once established on a commensu rate footing, and tested by the public, fail to supersede all less perfect means of Teleeraphic communication, as com pletely and universally as steam and the rail have superseded the stage and.the post road. Prom c dculations based on actual experience, and scrupu lously limited on the side of probable business, it has been deduced that a most satisfactory result may be at once relied on, and which is eventually destined to be largely exceeded. The directors, moreover, are already in a position to state from negotiations that have been commenced with every probability of being brought to a successful issue, that there is a reliable prospect of establishing, within a very limited period, sources of revenue to the Company totally indepen dent of profits from ordinary public business, and sufficient of themselves to produce a satisfactory dividend.

TEMPORARY OFFICES. 21, Throginorton-street, London. PROSPECTUS, While Exchange BaiTil;anddreciifinstitufions have been established to connect this country financially with almost every foreign market, and to give fact tiles for conveying,. to ' our shores every description of merchandise, it is remarkable that as soon as the operation of importing is performed the monetary facilities are withdrawn. The bills drawn upon our merchants mature, and must either be -net by the mer chant's capital unaided, or by sales. Thus, when tempo rarily there is an excess of any commodity imported, its Orice is undo y depressed, and s• rims losses are incurre rdinary bankers and discount houses dislike making ad vances upon merchandise, having no organisation for exa mining the goods and correct y estimating their value. What they want are good bills, drawn on those who, know ing the value, have accepted for a fair advance. Division of labour is here as elsewhere found to be most convenient and profitable. To meet this want, which every merchant must acknow ledge, the Warrant Banking Company is formed. The bull nese of the Company will mainly consist in making advances upon deposit of the staple articles of produce, represented by dock warrants or other means of absolute assignment, duly inspected and valued on behalf of the Company, and with a proper margin to allow for depreciation. These advances will be made in a'ceptances by the Com p iny of the drafts of its customers, and as every bill will re present merchandise readily convertible, and be at the same time secured bythe whole ea , ital of a powerful Company, the exact position of which will be patent to all, there can be no doubt that the whole Die ount Market will be available when it is desired by the holder to turn the bill into cash. It will be readily apparent that the existence of such an institution, while it will be of great service to merchants, and increase the stability of the entire class, will be an equal con venience to bankers and discount firms, furnishing them with a class of bills rarely obtainable. In order to render the due payment of the Company's acceptances certain, the Directors undertake that the entire paid-up capital of the Company will be invested, and, so far as practicable, remain invested in British and East Indian Government securities, and upon deposit at call, and it is proposed that the capital thus paid up and invested within the first year shall reach the BUM of at least £200,000. The field which exists for such an undertaking will be at once apparent from a glance at the Board of Trade returns of foreign impor a for the past year, which amounted (not to speak of home produce) to over £200,000,000. If we estimate the average stock of foreign goods held in warehouse, as equal to three months' consumption, it would represent an amount of .£50,000,000. Advances may also be made when deemed advisable upon 'stocks and Shares, in permanent undertakings readily con vertible. A re 'sonable proportion will always be Maintained be tween the extent of business undertaken and the cal'ed-up capital. Should it be necessary, the latter will be increased to one million sterling, to be invested as already indicated, simply as a guarantee fund. Branches will, in due time, be established at Liverpool, Manchester, Glasgow, &c. &c. Tee Directors will not receive any remuneratien until the shareholders have been paid £5 per cent. by way of dividend on their paid-up capital. Atter payment of 5 per cent, the Directors will receive one-fifth of the net profits. No promotion money will be paid for originating this un dertaking. The preliminary expenses will be confined to th e necessary disbursements. Prospectuses end forms of application for shares may be obtained of the brokers, bankers, solicitors, and at the tem umepboesrit allotted l te b d e tem porary offices of the Company , but no application for share s will be considered un'ess a depo sit of £1 per share h as b payment i been previoe ly p-id to the bankers of the Company, In the event of no a lormen t being made th e d returned without deduction, and should the n be less than the number a pp lied f or , the I will be applied towards the bala nce of the deposit. 11 excess FORS!
